1. Sarah C.
“Sarah was great! She Attempted to take Finley for a walk in the rain, but he didn’t wanna go. Instead of forcing him, they had a nice play session in the house, which is always good for him too. She followed my request to have him muzzled with his harness for the brief walk, and gave him a long and fresh water before she left. Perfect! Thanks!”

4. Karen S.
“We are so grateful to have found Karen! Layla is a big fan, Karen is so sweet and patient with her. As soon as I put her harness on she sits politely by the door waiting for Karen and that is after only two walks. To say she is smitten would be an understatement!”

10. Margaret R.
“Margie is a fantastic dog walker. She has helped me numerous times with my parents' golden retriever. Both my parents are elderly, and having someone like her to walk Cody has been a lifesaver. She recently lost her sweet dog, Mike. She was an avid walker with him and always made sure he had full attention when she had to work at her office away from home. She is prompt, professional, and a hard worker. She is your gal!”

About: I have always loved animals and grown up with them. I have experience with all species of animals and many breeds. I currently have a very friendly and lazy rescue pit of my own. I am reliable and flexible and would love to help care for you fur babies. I’m comfortable with all breeds and sizes and have a vehicle large enough for most dogs (a Ford Escape for reference). I am understanding of people’s beeds and changing schedules so you never have to worry if something comes up or changes. I have a pretty free schedule and love going on walks. I also have experience with cats, small pets, and farm animal such as cows or horses. Willing to work with all. Thank you. I work as a farmhand and knitting instructor for children. I’m very lucky that this allows me many open hours. I am available Tuesdays after 2; Wednesdays prior to 130 Thursdays prior to 130; Fridays prior to 1. I am also available for evening after 6 on all weekdays. I am willing to do occasional weekends. I will not be offering my own home for care due to stress on my own animals. I am willing to do check ins at a clients house.
12. Tracy C.
“Tracy has been pet sitting for my three dogs for several years. She is amazing with their different personalities and individual needs. She is dependable and very much loved by fur babies! Tracy takes the time to meet her clients before taking a job to ensure that she is a good fit for your pet. I've had her stay at my home on several occasions while traveling and I always return with my house cleaner than when I left and 3 very happy pups! I have recommended Tracy to several friends and family members, and all have been very happy with her care. Animals seem to warm up to her quickly, even the ones who are very standoffish - she just has that gift.”
13. Jacqui H.
“Jacqui Hawk is a business woman and artist having had a 22 year career in Higher Education with the Massachusetts University System...I would trust this woman with my home...my dogs..my grandchildren. I don't have grandkids yet..but have trusted her with my home and dogs on several trips out of state. Capable is so understated a word for this dynamo of detail oriented, conscientious home and pet sitter and service provider. She took better care of my dogs than anyone ..family or friends that have ever had my 2 shipoos.She is a gem.Use her.”
14. Andrea L.
About: I grew up always having a dog and other pets in our home. I absolutely love animals! When I was 19 I got my first dog on my own, Kyla she was a yellow lab and the love of my life. I currently have 2 Belgian Malinois- Cali and Bruin. I've worked training with them and another German Shepherd. I've also volunteered with MSPCA in the past. I would love to help in any way needed to keep your four legged friend happy and safe. I am experienced in many different breeds of dogs. Whether it's puppies or elderly dogs I have experience with both and I always care for them as I do my own! Walking, running, playing, feeding, brushing, cleanup or even belly rubs! I love caring for animals! :) I am currently working part-time as a PCA, doing in home private care. Prior, I was full-time for 10 years with a woman who suffered a TBI. I am very flexible with my daily schedule as I can move my work hours around to fit my dog's clients needs. I don't bring dog's I am caring for to my house, as mine get too worked up! I can care for pet's in their home/yard and walk them from there. I also take some dogs to different trails, hikes, and dog parks. All up to the owner's preference! I am happy to do what works best :)
15. Brian K.
“I thought it was awesome that Brian took the time to come over and meet me and my dog prior to their first walk together. My dog instantly took to Brian. Brian was dependable, positive and conscientious. It felt great knowing Radar was in good hands while I worked a few long days in a row.”
16. Karissa A.
About: I love dogs and cared for them since I was very young. My grandfather’s sister was a breeder of Yorkies. She showed me how to train and care for young puppies. I am proud to say that she trained many beautiful puppies to give to families. I am a mom who is looking for work that I can do from home so that I can stay with my babies. I think it’s a great opportunity for me to offer services since I am home most of the time, and also help someone else and their fur baby❤️ I love having my furry friends stay over and having them as companions. I enjoy taking them out for rides and scenic walks to the beach . I have many good memories and enjoy every moment we have together!
17. Helena W.
“Helena is amazing! I have a 2 year old active pup who isn't always the best listener. Helena is always so patient with him and he loves spending time with her. I highly recommend her. Any fur baby family would be lucky to have her.”
18. Tj D.
“TJ is a true dog lover with a great grasp of training fundamentals and canine behavior. She has both walked and provided dog-sitting for my very anxious dog, who loves her. I definitely recommend her. 10/10!”
